I just came across these stellar wheels, and love them. The depth of the spokes, and the tough, american-type look they have really stands out to me.

check out the gallery, they really look tough...

http://edgeracing.com/wheels/stilauto/

They are, of course, not available in a 4x108 pattern. (what else is new )

Anyway, I have come to feel that I may never find the "ideal" wheel that I would want for my CSVT, that will fit at least. I am not sure I want to go through the hassle and head ache of drilling out blanks.

I have just begun to look though, so I am sure alot of you guys have your ear to the rail more than I do. Is there any wheel out there with a simliar look to it, that you guys have come across?

For comparasson, here are some other wheels that I really like, but "can't have"...

And alot of the five-spokes here are nice, I like the Cobra 2, RT, and Fury models best.

Thanks for any help or recomendations!

Oh, I almost forgot! What do you guys think about these wheels, too?

30 lbs for a 19lb wheel? Porsche made 22" wheels that were that heavy! Why don't you get one of these too?

If you have a lot of patience you should take a look at Team Dynamics wheels (see the attached link).

Boze Stinger, available to 22x10

Though they are slightly LARGE for my taste, I saw you were look for rims in that area of size (18/19, etc, etc)

To each his own, though, I guess.
